Sounds okay to me, although I personally dont see what the problem is with posting a birthday message early…
Well, isn’t it awkard to post a b-day message when it isn’t your b-day?
haha – well I’ll just call dibs on that one then TSS =P
Personally, I dont think it’s awkward. sometimes people just wanna do it early, so it’s there in time and they dont forget (i’m talking about any kind of message, not just online forum ones). I’ve gotten both early and late bday messages. I guess it’s all a matter of opinion. 
Ok daddy Dash I will not do a birthday thread.
I just think it wierd how a person says happy birthday to you at 9:00 PM, knowing your real B-day is in 3 hours.
